Guest guest Posted August 11, 2002 Report Share Posted August 11, 2002 Hi, You know she does have a neighbor but I dont' have her phone number. maybe what I can do is ask her for it but not leed on to as why. I dont' know if she is scared or just stubbern. I would think stubern because she is in her 70's and she keeps telling me the doctor is aware of the problems and he told her to take her medicines anyway. So I would go with the stubbern side. LOL Thank you I will go to those pages and send them to her anyway. Hugs, ette TLC wrote: Hi ette, When does she next see the doctor?? I agree with everyone else, she should get to the ER...but, if she refuses to do that, perhaps Barb's suggestion would work. Have her call and talk with a nurse..and what ever else Barb said. Is she stubborn or afraid??? She does need medical attention, and soon I would say. Is there a neighbor who lives close to her, and you could give them a call? Maybe someone needs to just tell her she needs medical attention, and they could take her to the ER and stay with her. Perhaps she's afraid to go alone. Your friend, ~~tricia~~ p.s. Please let us know how this turns out...okay?? I surely hope she will be okay. Some meds can be awful little buggers!! (speaking from experience!) -- Re: Help! Hi everybody. I need help. My Mother-in-law wrote me today and she is having a terrible time. She has RA and her doctor put her on Rhumacaid and she since the last two have gotten a bad rash and is itching all the time. She told him and he is keeping her on it anyway and gave her Celebrex and upped her Preds. He also gave her Allegra for her thinking it may be allergy. Well she says she still has the rash and it's still itchy, her tung swells up which makes it hard to breathe, and when she took the Allegra about an hour later her heart would beat fast and skip a beat. Can anyone help me look these up. Maybe I can printout some things for her and maybe she can take them to the doctors with her. Thanks so much, God Bless You All,your friend, <))>< Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes, people of this age think of doctors as little gods and do whatever they say no questions asked. Maybe that's part of it? As much as it hurts you, it is still your mom's choice; don't take a responsibility on your shoulders that doesn't really belong to you--it's always too heavy to carry. You're doing everything you can ... try to leave the rest with God as best you can.
